Snow White and the Huntsman & Mirror, Mirror

So serious or comedy?  Well why not both!!











When I heard they were making this movie I was so excited. As a lover of all fairy tales I was ecstatic to find out that this was being made.  When I found out that non other than Kristen was to be the lead I was jumping for joy!! 

Check out the first trailer for this upcoming movie with a twist on the classic fairy tale of Snow White. 
Coming out Summer 2012

I guess this will have to keep me company until Breaking Dawn 2 comes out next Nov.

Breaking Dawn Part 1



We went to go see Breaking Dawn Part 1 last night in Lakeland.  And I must say that they have come a long way from the first Twilight movie.  And that they would have made so much more money and awards if they would have been this AMAZING from the beginning!!



I sat in the theater and was HAPPY surprised by just how MUCH was WORD FOR WORD from the book!!!  This movie the last in this Saga has been the BEST movie yet!!

I can't wait for the next part to come out.  And I hope that if Meyer decides to make another twilight book and they do it to a movie that they use the same director!! 


As for age rating.  I think that it would depend on how mature your child is.  If you think they might be able to understand what is going on. or you don't mind answering their questions then I think it would be just fine.  There was not a lot of sex and pretty much no nudity.  The sex part lasted for only a few seconds.

The Magi


Product Description

Thirteen-year-old Elijah Hawk has never heard of the Magi. He knows nothing about their three thousand-year-old secret. He has never been to Savenridge, the Magi city hidden deep inside the northern woods. Most of all, Elijah is unaware of the dangers hunting him. 

After one terrifying night, however, all of that changes! On a quest to solve the horrific murder of his parents, Elijah stumbles upon the land of the Magi. Learning their ancient secrets and training with their power is the least of his problems. In order to find out why his parents were killed, Elijah learns that he must confront the dangers that are hunting him, even though it means almost certain death. What's more terrifying is discovering that his journey to this new world may not have been an accident after all.

I really did love this book!!  I fell in love with the cover as soon as I saw it.  Im a great fan of the Last Airbender cartoon and the movie.  and this cover reminded me so much of their way of life.  Before I start my review I have some quotes from the book and what they mean to me.

"Elijah was confused how four men could bring such fear to an entire city."> pg 1926-1940 (on kindle)
The above reminded me about how much our world is ruled by fear.  We fear the unknown and that makes us very unpredictable.  Those who are ruled by fear will never know freedom.

"There's so much to learn about the world, and I'm afraid some will never know because they're not looking" >Pg. 5210

This reminds me to stop and smell the roses.  To open my eyes and all of my other seances and be aware of the world around me.  So many things could be avoided if you were just paying attention.


Ok my review:

This book was amazing and a MUST READ. And at 2.99 you can't beat that.  I was lucky enough to get a copy from the author.  I so hope that they decide to make this book in print as I know the symbol on the front will be added to my collection of tattoos. (yes ill post it when i get it lol)

The book went way fast and wasn't stagnant at all.  It kept me intertwined until the very end.  And I can't wait for more.

Elijah is a wonderful charter and I just love his friend paul and Mr. Roddick and his family reminded me of my own.  We are the ones who take in all the strays be it animals or people.

This book would be an easy read for ages 7+  I am currently putting it on my daughters kindle so she can read it herself.

So please click the link above and purchase a copy for your self or your children.  You won't be disappointed.

I can't believe that we now have a House of Night Comic Book.  I downloaded it on my iPad from Dark horse and it was great.  It is so night to SEE what is going on.  This is almost as good as the movie is going to be.

Lets just hope that they don't mess up one of our fav. Book series like they did with Twilight.

The Splendor Falls

The Splendor FallsThe Splendor Falls by Rosemary Clement-Moore
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Ok well I started out with this book because it was on my bookclub reading list. And although the story was good the entire book needed a firm editor. The first 400 pages could have been cut way down to say around 100 then the last 120 pages could have had more to it.

The only part that I really loved was the little dog. She was such a character. Stealing every page she was in.

So Im giving it 2 stars because the book could have been so much better.
